...then it's an LS1. Congrats.
No other type of V8 came in the 98-02 F-bodies (Camaros and Firebirds).
An LT1 came in the 93-97 F-bodies. It looks like this:
This is a L98 (350 TPI, tune-port injection) engine in an '91 Z28:
The third generation F-bodies (82-92) also came with a 5.0 Liter, but all fourth gens came with 5.7.
bwahaha.
